dry cookies going to dry air

Wednesday, March 26, 2008

We are headed west tomorrow to go skiing. I know it seems a little crazy this time of year, but it seemed like a fabulous idea back in December, when we booked it. Actually, we are all really looking forward to it. Sort of like our last hoorah to winter.I wanted to make some sort of hearty cookie to take along with us. Something healthy too. I found a recipe for peanut butter trail mix cookies in one of my old books. I thought they sounded pretty good. Thought that I could use the goji berry trail mix that I have been loving. I have been trying to get my family to love the goji berries. Read a lot about their benefits, plus the cute guy at Whole Foods told me they were great for you. All righty then. I will put them in everything.

These were voted the worst cookie that I ever made by my family. I actually love them. I promise! Everyone thinks they are a little dry. Dry is good with my coffee.

So, if you are at all interested in making a dry, hearty, semi- healthy cookie, here you go:

Awwww, I'm missing you already! Have a safe trip, and hurry back :-) Oh and have fun!One of these days I'm gonna try your cookie recipes. Right now though I have hubby on South Beach diet... not such a good time to bake!I've been in the US for 10 years now and I still don't get sick of people telling me they love my accent :) And apparently they could listen to me talk all day too. Wish we could chat over coffee too((((hugs))))

Have a great time! Winter is wearing away here in VT and I have to say as thrilled as I am about it I am a touch sad to see it go. You'll have fun enjoying the snow knowing that you'll have more warmth to come home to. Plus you get to give your knits their last big hurrah!

The snow is amazing, Leslie. I know you will have a blast. Enjoy yourselves. There's nothing better than a spring break ski trip with your children. We always say those spring breaks were the best memories of family time spent together.Be sure to get one of those precious ski photos taken of you with the kids.

Just want to say that yours is my favourite blog. I love your projects, the cookies, the fabulous photos and the stories of you and your kids. Thanks! I have been blogging for a short time - just about our craft projects, reading and the fun things we do. Your blog is an inspiration. Cheers! Enjoy the skiing - we've been swimming in a rooftop pool in Sydney for our long weekend.
